You can mount the beast and use it for the elimination of the enemies

Fighting the enemies directly, in the game, is not limited to choosing between melee and ranged weapon. You can, just as well, eliminate enemies in more creative ways and several of these have been presented below. (to learn more about the available attacks, see the chapter entitled Character Development).

A very interesting ability is the one that allows you to mount caragors, i.e. very strong and agile beasts. After you tame one, you can start attacking enemies with his help, which makes your attacks more effective. An additional upside is that caragor can heal itself, thanks to which this is not a short-lasting fun.

Later into the game, you also gain access to the ability that allows you to Brand the opponents. The Branded creature becomes Talion's ally and helps you eliminate the rest of the enemies. This option allows you to utilize many interesting tactical attacks because you can brand, e.g. an enemy archer and ensure yourself with additional backup of his ranged attacks.
